Yes I do, I found the Windows 98 drivers for the printer HP LJ3600dn.
Didn't come on the newer versions of the install CD, but found on Internet. I tell Wizard where to find driver files and it is happy. That part I have correct. "MEB" meb@not wrote in message ...

I don't think you can do this in the 'wizard' , instead add as a local
printer, then properties/details tab and use add port option. Warren wrote: I have a network printer installed on the LAN with it's own IP address. How do I configure "Add Printer" wizard to connect to this printer from a Win98 PC ? |

starts the wizard. What information do I enter configure into the Add Port ? "Dave B." wrote in message ...
